We only stayed for one night (we were touring a nearby college with our daughter). The Essex was very peaceful, friendly staff, and although we didn't bring our dog...we couldn't help but notice how pet-friendly the hotel and surrounding towns are!
Wish we could have taken advantage of the pool, spa, and other amenities. The resort fee was only $20, but not having the time to utilize the offerings due to our schedule, short visit, and check in - check out times. Perhaps they could modify this fee based on amount of time at the hotel, just a thought.

This hotel was a good value for the room rate. Convenient location near I-89 and Downtown Burlington, VT. Room was reasonably quiet. Breakfast was standard for this type of hotel, with toaster, pastries, waffle maker, oatmeal, .eggs, fruit and yogurt. The plumbing was somewhat noisey, but not too bad. Workout room was very minimal and the elliptical was ricketty. The indoor pool was decent for this level of hotel. Staff was always friendly and helpful. The current construction wasn't too disruptive, will eventually end, and will likely enhance the facilities.

This was our first trip to Burlington and we will definitely stay here again when we come back. The room was very spacious and the bed was extra comfortable. The full breakfast had several choices. The hotel was about 10 minutes from downtown.
